The Effectiveness of Surveillance Technology
Supervision refers to the monitoring of human practices and behavior, activities, or information for the purpose of gathering information, influence, management or direction. … Governments use surveillance to gather intelligence, prevent crime, protect an action, individual, group or item, or investigate a crime.
Surveillance technologies are actually the use of technology that aims to record human behavior in a way that draws conclusions from surveillance processes or technology used for surveys and comments on what is effective and understandable.
This technology is based on the following, which makes this technology effective:
· Video Surveillance.
· Big Data.
· Police Body Cameras.
· Biometrics.
· Domestic Drones.
· Face Recognition Technology.
· RFID Chips.
· Stingray Tracking Devices.
Ahmad Khokhar explain the Ways of effectiveness of Surveillance or the technology on the following:
If we are considering installing a new digital surveillance system or upgrading our old system, it is important for us to know what a digital video surveillance system can do for our business.
The implementation of the Security Camera System is related to the security of our company’s assets, which includes an asset structure as well as hardworking individuals. These security cameras play an important role in successful business operations. From theft prevention to tracking customer movement patterns, video surveillance systems offer our company countless benefits.
- Benefits of digital video surveillance in businesses:
· Reduce Loss, Theft and Vandalism. …
· Experience Easier Installation and More Effective Implementation. …
· Improve Storage and Accessibility. …
· Enable Remote Monitoring. …
· Reduce Costs & Scale More Easily. …
· Save Time with Distributed Intelligence. …
· Upgrade Your Management Software. …
· Improve Productivity.
2. Big Data.
Big data technologies are analyzed, processed, from a very complex and large data set that is so large, fast, or complex it provides software tools for data extraction. It helps organizations create new growth opportunities and create completely new types of companies that can combine and analyze industry data. There is a lot of information about services, buyers and suppliers, consumer preferences that can be analyzed, which we can never deal with traditional management tools.
Different types of data mean structural, unstructured and semi-structured data that is collected from multiple sources. Whereas in the past, data could only be collected from spreadsheets and databases, today data comes in formats such as email, PDF, photos, video, audio, SMS posts, and more.

3. Police Body Camera.
The purpose of police body cameras is to record enforcement, investigative and other encounters between the police and the public.
For nearly two decades, law enforcement agencies have been detecting and enforcing the use of body cameras to help make officers more accountable and departments more transparent. It is a way to restore trust with our communities and reduce citizens’ grievances.
Police body cameras provide visual and audio evidence that can independently verify incidents. Physical cameras worn by the police serve two purposes. The first goal is to improve the safety and communication of officers while working in a stressful environment. The second goal is to state the facts of what happened when the situation got out of hand and people were injured or lost their lives. Help provide Police body cameras improve police accountability and less reports of police mismanagement.
Many community stakeholders and criminal justice leaders have suggested that police officers have physical wear cameras (BWCs) to improve the competitiveness of police citizens and the transparency and legitimacy of the police.
4. Biometrics
Biometrics refers to the measurement and statistical analysis of individual physical and behavioral characteristics of people. Biometrics technology is actually used primarily to identify and control access or to identify people who are under surveillance. It is a unique way of measuring a person’s physical characteristics that are identified by their physical characteristics, such as fingerprints and eyes, or behavioral characteristics.
5.Domestic Drones.
Drones are especially important and useful for performing tasks that endanger human safety. Drones offer a smaller, one-time, more efficient and environmentally friendly way to deliver than traditional delivery vehicles. They can also reduce the need and quantity of conventional manpower and skilled equipment.
UAVs work best in protecting civilians because they provide real-life images. By looking at them we can make more quick and decisive decisions. They also provide better protection to our people as you receive advance warning that an ambush or attack is imminent. Importantly, drones large enough to carry goods and human passengers have now become a reality.
6. Facial Recognition Technology.
Facial recognition systems We use computer algorithms to get specific details about a person’s face. These details, such as the distance between the shape of the eyes or the chin, etc. It is used to monitor people and objects and to detect faces in real time. Facial recognition software relies on machine learning technology, which has to “learn” a large number of datasets to deliver accurate results. Such large data sets require robust data storage. We know that there are many benefits to recognizing the human face in our society, including increasing safety and security, preventing crime, and reducing human interaction. In some cases, it may even be helpful to seek medical help.
7. RFID Chips.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is the wireless non-contact use of radio frequency waves for data transmission. Tagging items with RFID tags allows users to automatically and uniquely identify and locate inventory and assets. RFID can improve performance on standard barcode technology by reading more than one tag at a time.
A human microchip implant is any electronic device used to insert a subcutaneous implant. Examples include an identified integrated circuit RFID device hidden in silicate glass that is used to insert into the human body.
8. Stingray Tracking Devices.
Stingray is the common name for an electronic surveillance device that mimics a mobile phone tower so that mobile phones and other devices can be forced to connect to a legitimate cell tower instead. … Other common names for this tool are “Cell Site Simulator” and “IMSI Detector”.
Stingray, also known as “Cell Site Simulator” or “IMSI Catchers”, is a cell phone monitoring tool that mimics cell phone towers and transmits cell phones to locations in the area. And send signals to identify information. When used to track a suspect’s cell phone, they also collect information about the phones of countless passengers who are nearby.
“We deal with all these technologies,” said Arif Rajan, Managing Director, ICT (Intelligent Security ( GCS (Pvt) Ltd.). The source is to make the nation feel safe.
